RETURNS & EXCHANGES – EXPLAINED

At the expense of convenience and providing customer satisfaction, we offer free shipping for orders of our products.

However, shipping is actually not free, Urbanelectricbike absorbs the shipping fee and pays for it on your behalf. That means we take returns very seriously. 1 shipping trip of an electric bike (a battery product), will cost upwards of $150 per trip.

On top of that, we do not sell returned products. There is intense labor involved in a returned product, we have to inspect the entire returned bike in and out. This is not even including of handling, repair, or service fees for all of these troubles.

We will not charge you all these additional fees as we aim to provide top-notch customer service and support. To keep it fair for you as well as us, all we ask is for you to cover the 3rd party costs incurred such as shipping and taxes. (Should you choose to do a return/exchange)

Please be fair to us. We are just humans working behind the scenes and around the clock. We genuinely try to do a good job serving every rider. Your satisfaction and trust are extremely important to us.

How Will I Receive My Reimbursement?
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of the reimbursement except as described above.
